A viral backstage video revealed the striking details of his attire. Davido wore a white T-shirt reading “NIGERIA” beneath a black leather jacket.

The jacket featured the message “BRING THEM HOME” boldly printed across the back and was decorated with green circular buttons on the front.Each button bore the name of a kidnapped victim. To differentiate their fates, the names of those still in captivity were written in white, while the names of those who lost their lives were inscribed in red.

Using his platform as a global cultural ambassador, the artiste drew international attention to Nigeria’s ongoing security challenges.

Moments before stepping on stage, Davido expressed his sorrow over the situation and pleaded with the government to expedite its rescue operations.

“Peace and love everywhere. May God be with the families of the abducted and the ones who have been killed,” Davido said.

“They still haven’t been rescued; we’re praying to God every day. We’re also praying to God that the government hastens, and you know… My country is going through a lot. We represent everywhere we go.”
